Reviews Summary
Powered by Myra.AI
This property has a friendly owner and helpful staff, especially Raju bhai, praised for his hospitality. Many guests enjoyed the location, being close to the Golden Temple and local markets. However, numerous reviews highlighted issues like cleanliness, misleading photos, and inadequate facilities. Rooms often did not match what was advertised, lacking essential items and having hygiene concerns. While it’s budget-friendly, several guests found the experience disappointing due to poor maintenance and overall conditions.

Nice stay
It was a big room, actually big enough for a solo traveller. How i wish i stayed in the dorm instead. Regarding the stay, i would say that raju bhaiya made it awesome with his warm hospitality. Also, it is a hostel that is only a few minutes away from the golden temple. If you want to feel the vibe of amritsar's busy lanes, this hostel is exactly located in one of those lanes.

I found WOW BACKPACKERS very good, the caretaker was very helpful and its proximity to Golden Temple helped me a lot. My experience in WOW BACKPACKERS was good and great in Amritsar, specially at Attari 🇮🇳 - WAGAH 🇵🇰 Border. JAI HIND!

Average
Dorms are not as dorms to be expected. These are just small rooms where 4-5 untidy beds are kept. The bedsheet and pillows weren't clean.

Stay was very good and the caretaker raju bhai was the most polite person i've seen, i would say if raju bhai is the caretaker the place will prosper more, without him i wouldn't prefer going there

Pathetic rooms, no amenities
The room is totally different from what it is shown, you only get fan light and bed, no furniture, no cupboard, no towels, no dressing table, no tv, no toiletries. Even the washroom is unhygienic, you can be peeped from the terrace while you are in washroom, ventilation doesn't work, the rooms have a clumay smell, mattress is uncomfortable, the owner is pathetic. Only positive point is the caretaker - raju, he was of great help.
Room: Family suite with free Wifi
